Brief Summary  
Part 1:

The study will be conducted for a period of approximately 4 weeks. On visit 1, the subjects will be selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria and will be enrolled after obtaining informed consent. On visit 2, baseline assessments (T0) will be evaluated through visual assessments by Dermatologists, Instrumental evaluations and subjects’ self-assessment.

The subject will be provided with the test product to apply on full face after face wash under the supervision of the study coordinator. Then 1h assessments (1hr after product application) will be performed.

Post completion of the assessment, the subject will be dispensed with the test product and subject diary to carry home and instructed to use for 4- weeks after washing of the face with provided cleanser.

The subjects will be instructed to visit the study centre at day 1, 3, Week 1, 2, 3 & 4 for the follow up assessments.

Part 2:

On visit 2, Two test sites will be identified on the subject’s forearm. The test site identification will be followed by baseline corneometer measurement. Then the test products will be applied on each of the identified sites on the forearm as per randomization. Post 15 min (+15min) of test product application & 72 hrs corneometer measurements will be performed. 20 layers of tape stripping will be performed post product application on the identified test sites and Corneometer measurements will be performed on 0 (before tape stripping), at the end of 5th strip, 10th strip, 15th strip  and 20th tape strip.
